Today’s Totally Random Lines

 

Fool, fool, fool, I say,--

 

Malvolio

Twelfth Night            Act IV, Scene ii, Line 106

 

Malvolio is speaking to someone who is listed in the script as Clown. Malvolio is a character is this play who thinks of himself as quite proper: sort of like the type you would see being the head butler in an upper-class British household. 

So, given what Malvolio is, and given that the other fellow is listed as clown, today’s line seems about right.

Wouldn’t you agree?


Mojo had no comeback today. 
I couldn't tell if he was confused or ambivalent, but either way I've left him speechless for once.
